hi guys ive recently bought a brand new computer its got a AGP slot but onboard graphics but i want to disable this and buy a graphics card but i am not too sure on what to buy ie: nvidia or ati etc, i dont have alot of money to spend on one maybe around £150 sterling anyone got some ideas on what to buy would be nice to hear some opinions many thanks shaun
NVIDIA 6800 would be my choice. I just love NVIDIA cards... If you could stretch to just over £200 the 6800GT is a great card. You can overclock it real good, and the 'bang for buck' factor is really emphasised.
Leadtek 6600 gt, best stock cooling of any 6600gt and 75% of the performance of a 6800gt @ 50% of the price.
6800 would be an awesome card for your system, or if you dont feel like spending that much go for a 6600GT
6600gt's are nice,, 6800's are like 90% of a 6800gt, a good ol p4 3.2-- did you get a dell.. (curious)
nah, if he had a dell he wouldnt be asking about AGP cards (most onboard dell machines have no agp slot, only pci) and i agree with the first few posts, find yourself a nice 6600GT, and if the budget has some stretch, maybe a 6800nu
With that hard rice and that amount of RAM, its looking like a Dell. Isnt the ATI x300se rubbish ??? ;-) LOL
HDD space and ram size doesnt say anything about which brand of pre-built machine it is, unless off course it is a size that only a single brand comes with, but 160 is pretty normal and there wasnt any mention of a x300se? it is a bit rubbish though nowadays
hi guys thanks for the reply the pc is built by a firm called philips its the freeline brand they make many thanks
